Caramelized Onion and Cornbread Stuffing

"This recipes comes from the Food Network courtesy of Tyler Florence. I made this for Thanksgiving this year. The amount of chicken stock was listed as 1/4 cup, this was cooked in a small pan in the oven and I found that I needed additional for the stuffing to be as moist as we liked."

  1. I've used this recipe for 3 years now and I absolutely love it, as do all who taste it. I do add extraliquid with a little extra stock and a little extra cream.
     
  2. I made this last year, and it did turn out a little dry, but with a little more moisture added such as the Smoked Turkey Gravy!! or any of the turkey gravys Tyler Florence makes...OMG! I love this dressing!
     
  3. Mine turned out dry and I used less cornbread than suggested. I used savory and poultry seasoning in place of the fresh sage. Won't make again.
     
  4. This is my first time making 'dressing' as I usually make stuffing. But my MIL has inspired me to enjoy dressing as hers is wonderful. And now I have my own too thanks to you, Paula! This is a wonderful dressing, and simple to put together! It's very moist, creamy, and sweet. I did add a bit more heavy cream rather than stock for creaminess. Next time I will add some celery to the mix... And there will definitely be a next time! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe. :)

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called. Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com. Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net. Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
